Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Ground Pound (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Pierre St Georges (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). St Georges comes into a darkened arena with his song building. I'm no superman (lazlo bane- scrubs theme) kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! These two fighters really are very evenly matched on the feet - it will be fascinating to see who can assert themselves in that aspect of the fight.
